Platters Restaurant Plymouth is the most fabulous seafood restaurant located on Plymouth's historic Barbican.

For 30 years they have sourced fish from the Plymouth Fish Market, which originally was directly opposite the restaurant and has now moved 200 yards across the quay. Very reasonably priced, large portions and great atmosphere.

Seco Lounge

This really is the most stunning venue. The views, combined with the Royal William Yard architecture are very hard to beat. Although the interior decor is somewhat contrived it really does work, and the outdoor terrace is a fantastic early evening sun trap.

NOTE: There is no table service so you may have to queue at the bar to order your food.

The View

Set high on the cliffs overlooking Whitsand Bay on the Rame Peninsula, The View lives up to its name.

Whatever the weather, looking out from the bistro-by-day, restaurant-by-night is awe-inspiring - Eddystone lighthouse is visible in the distance and you can see all the way to the Lizard on a clear day. Get out on the 35 cover sun terrace to really enjoy it.
Worth checking out for the food alone, it’s a culmination of years of hard work by head chef Matt Corner and his wife Rachel, who make full use of local produce - especially fish. Try the John Dory with Cornish crab and village
green risotto.
The interior is made up of simple pine and crisp white tablecloths, so as not to distract you from the gorgeous setting or your plate. If you over-indulge, and that’s no bad thing, work it off by venturing down the steep hill to the beach below.

The View, Trinninow Cliff Road, Millbrook, Torpoint. Tel. 01752 822345.

The food at the Artillery Tower in Plymouth focuses on the best local produce of small, dedicated producers within 30 miles of the restaurant.

The cooking complements fine ingredients without needless embellishment; honest, not too fiddly like some other restaurants; with home-made desserts and regional cheeses. The wine list concentrates on quality artisan producers. We provide efficient, personal service in a warm friendly atmosphere, and look forward to welcoming you to one of the better restaurants in Plymouth.

Firestone Bay Artillery Tower dates from the early 1500's, and is one of the oldest complete military buildings on Plymouth's sea front. This tower protected the deep water passage at the North of Plymouth sound, between Drake's Island and the main water front.
